Description
The appellant, Karry Kaduk, challenges the trial courts order of revocation of probation. He contends the violation of changing residences without approval of his probation officer was not a willful and substantial violation, where he removed himself from his residence because of a domestic dispute. We conclude that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in determining that failure to notify his probation officer for a period of weeks after the incident makes this violation willful and substantial. In addition, Kaduk contends that the trial court erred in failing to familiarize itself with prior probation revocation proceedings before sentencing him on his current violation. Because Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.700(c) does not apply in probation violation proceedings, the trial courts consideration of previous admitted violations in determining whether to revoke his probation was not an abuse of discretion. We affirm.
